Narrative:
Upon turning final for runway 28C; approach informed us that a uav was spotted at 2700 on approach to runway 27L. Pilots briefly discussed what to do if they saw it. It is a distraction when we are informed of this and now we are all looking for it as you have no idea if and when it can pop up. Very dangerous situation.
